yuiedie, do you drive the car hard? If so the powder is from gelled and dried fuel additives that didn't have a chance to burn off in the cylinders during high RPMs. It's a sign that you need to slow down.
If not you need to take the car in to the dealership to have the catalytic converter inspected because the powder is likely ceramic dust from a failing or failed component in there.
